Do you have the coreutils package installed? Is "install" there? If not, it will not build the rpm structure correctly, see .spec file line 66. That won't affect the base server operation but it will keep the supplemental files from being added to the rpm... which means you have to set it all up manually and have lost some of the advantage of the package. Personally, I build on a dedicated build machine that has all the requirements and then simply deploy from a local repository to the target... whether it be test or production. That saves having to figure out the build environment every time and keeps compilers out off production boxes. -Ted- J Santos wrote:
I had no errors other than the missing directories that I had to manually create.
radiusd is uder /etc/logrotate.d

and
radius is under (not radiusd)
/etc/pam.d
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 360 Dec 1 09:15 radius
It looks like the missing directories is a permission issue but I was working as root.
The server runs fine. Anything else I should check ?
Thanks

It sounds like something went wrong in the rpmbuild. That script should have been included. The base script is included in "~/rpmbuild/BUILD/freeradius-server-2.1.1/redhat/rc.radiusd-redhat". That should have been installed @ "/etc/rc.d/init.d/radiusd". It not, check that you got "radiusd" under "/etc/logrotate.d" and "/etc/pam.d", those might be missing too. Again, you should not have to create that stuff manually. That's part of the advantage of a package and it should be there if the package built correctly.

Hi all,
I 've succesfully built the freeradius-server-2.1.1-0.x86_64.rpm.
I only had to manually create the directories RPMS,
SOURCEs, SPECS
and x86_64 during the process.
When installing I had to uninstall version 1.1.3 because of
conflicts
but once I did it the rpm worked smoothly.
My only problem now is that I don't have the init script on /etc/init.d.
Does anybody know where I can get it from ?
And, I am just wondering if we could make this rpm
available for other
people to use it.
Thanks

Don't know. If you look in the .spec file you'll see what
additional
work is done in the package that isn't done otherwise. In
addition to
init.d you may need to deal with logrotate.d and pam.d,
ldconfig and
chkconfig, not to mention the users and groups it creates
or the log
files it customizes. You can do all this configuration by
hand if you
know what to do, but its a lot of extra work. This is why
its a good
idea to do an rpmbuild and install the package. It should deal with the existing version as well as enable a proper upgrade when a new version becomes available in the repository. Simply building from source may not be compatible with the previous version that's already there or compatible with any upgrade because the package has
additional things
and sometimes has them in different places. Just my opinion but I strongly discourage not using packages for applications already in the distros repository.

Thank you.
Actually the server is running very well now. Investigating more I realized that version 1.13 is still there but in different directories, so when I set to start on boot it will run
version 1.13.
Does anybody know if it is only a matter of changing the radiusd script on /etc/init.d to point to version 2.1 daemon and
conf files ?
Or there is anything elese that I have to do ?

I assume that you are referring to a build from source
as opposed
to an rpmbuild from source?
If that's the case you would want to review this: http://wiki.freeradius.org/Build#Building_RedHat_packages
